A Heartfelt Story About Letting Go, Self-Acceptance, and Embracing Life's Joys

Meet Micha, a gentle, gender-neutral child who carries a wagon filled with heavy bags -- each labeled with feelings like fear, sadness, and worry. Everywhere Micha goes, the wagon follows, slowing them down and keeping them from joining in on the fun. No matter how kind the friends or how exciting the adventures, Micha just can't seem to let go.

But one day, with a little help from nature -- and the kindness of others -- Micha discovers a powerful truth: life is lighter and brighter when we release what weighs us down.
